[When the feed clicks on, there's a soft sniffle, but Flora's doing her best to try and keep it together. (And failing.)]

U-um... Has... Has anyone seen Luke Triton? H-he and I were on a little trek, outside Mount Mortar, a-and...

Well, Mr. Bear and... and Claire, they're both in my party now. [There's a soft cry, and she has to take a moment to compose herself.]

I... I haven't seen him in a f-few hours-- a-and I don't quite know where... where I'm supposed to go. I... I'm hoping he's just exploring on his own, but...

He won't even answer.

[Everyone's gone and left her behind again.]

I... I don't wish to impose on you though... I'm... I'm in Mount Mortar, as safe as that is... A friend says I should try to head b-back to a city.

[Cutie!] I'll try to be there as soon as possible, okay?

You need some help?

That doesn't sound too good. If only I had that HM... Do you know which city is the closest, and in which direction you'd have to go to reach it?

That's around the north of Goldenrod, right? How about I try meeting you in Ecruteak - I mean, if you've just lost somebody...
[A bit of a sigh. Laguna hates thinking about this - he can't help but think of his little girl. Sure, Ellone is younger, but...]
You don't need to be alone, okay?

[There's something that sounds like 'okay' and 'yes thank you winry' but most of it is full of broken sobs. She'll be coherent in a few minutes.]

I think it is Ecruteak. Or... the city after it? We were traveling a-away from Goldenrod in this direction.

I d-don't... know... I j-just have to... walk back to the next city, right?

I guess so, but what I'm saying is are you sure you can handle it alone?

T-that would be nice... I-- I know Winry's heading up, b-but it'll take her a w-while too. [She just whimpers softly.]

I'm s-so sorry to bother you this way. T-thank you s-so much!

[It's fine, she'll wait.] Sorry I'm not any closer, or else I'd be there sooner.

[Maybe she'll be lucky and find other good company too.]

It's not a bother! [You can't see it because audio, but Laguna has a smile - though he's feeling a little nervous. Is he calming her well enough? How'd he react if somebody vanished...?]
Guess I'll need to let Clem and Ushio know, though... I'll be there as soon as I can. I've wanted to check out Ecruteak, anyway. So, y'don't need to worry about me, Flora.

I just... I guess I can. I mean... When I arrived, I managed three days on the edge of the first town.

You need somebody to come find you? I probably could, if no one else is going to.

Ecruteak or Mahogany, then...

[The rustling of a paper map can be heard.]

Did you surf over a lake or cross through the mountain as you were traveling?

maybe he'll come back?
you know like some people did

do you need someone to be with you?

_{[... Luke? Luke's gone?]

[Shit. That kid had been here almost as long as Heather has, and hearing it is a bit of a blow.]}

... I'm sorry.

... He might come back.

....what?

[Emmy heard what Flora said; heard it quite fine, actually. It just isn't computing.]

Did you say Luke's....gone?

[...well, if that wasn't an opening sentence, Descole doesn't know what was.

A quick check on the 'Gear ID verifies that it's the girl who claimed to be one of Layton's a while back; presumably she may have known about "Big Luke" as well. So between Clive, Layton and now Luke...

...dammit.]

I suppose the most relevant question right now is if you're all right. In one piece and all. You're not in any danger?

It's alright and perfectly understandable. Just take your time.

...like everyone else said, probably went back home. He could come back later. You got a means to go back to the city or, would you prefer option B, press on and finish the quest, anyway?

[After a few sniffles and soft crying, Flora calms down a little.]

I-it's okay. Y-you're a b-busy young miss. Y-you're too nice or even... offering to help. T-thank you!

We d-didn't surf anywhere. It's all b-been on foot. I... I think I m-may just head back. It... it seems easier.

I... I think I j-just have to head... back.

[But that means going back into the cold weather.]

...I would very much appreciate some help.

T-thank you, y-you're too kind.

[And with that, more squeaky cries. She's going to be at this for a little.]
